Ta, Ti and Hf effects on NbSn high-field performance: temperature-dependent dopant occupancy and failure of Kramer extrapolation

Chiara Tarantini, Shreyas Balachandran, Steve M Heald +5

The increasing demand for improving the high-field (16-22 T) performance of NbSn conductors requires a better understanding of the properties of modern wires much closer to irr…

Beneficial influence of Hf and Zr additions to Nb4at.%Ta on the vortex pinning of NbSn with and without an O source

Shreyas Balachandran, Chiara Tarantini, Peter J. Lee +5

Here we show that addition of Hf to Nb4Ta can significantly improve the high field performance of NbSn, making it suitable for dipole magnets for Future Circular Collider (FC…
